We are super excited that RAIR is open to the public for applications
for the first time ever! For the past few years, we've been piloting the
residency program with select artists. Now, we have a system in place
to accommodate a full roster of artists in 2014. We can't wait to see
the applications that come in. Here's some important things to know:
1. Applications are due on November 30th. There's
still a whole month to go before the deadline. That's a good chunk of
time to do put together a solid application. There are
FAQ's on our website and you can find the application
here.
2. There are two application tracks. We are offering a "
Standard Residency" and the "
Biggie Shorty Residency". Artists should apply the program that best meets the needs of their project.
3. Applicants are HIGHLY encouraged to take a tour before applying. The
RAIR studio space is housed within a very busy industrial facility,
which is incredible but not for everyone. It's hard to wrap your head
around the moving parts and the conditions you'll be working in without
seeing it firsthand. We are offering tours for potential applicants at
noon on every
Saturday in November. If you'd like to sign up, send us an email at
rair.philly@gmail.com.
3. Spread the word. Know someone who may be interested in this opportunity? Please help us get this info out!
Looking forward to sharing the winners with you in 2014. In case you missed it earlier - here's the link to our application.
Thanks for your support,
Fern, Billy Blaise and the rest of the RAIR team
